Infinite flow: The non-African's partner is the European emperor
Chapter 291: Eternal Tower - Ghost City 9
As soon as Chen Xuan left the room, the Ghost King came back.
He held a jug of wine in his hand and threw it directly to Xie Zhixing who was sitting on the ground, then sat down opposite him with his legs bent.
"I said, why are you in the Ghost City?"
Xie Zhixing didn't know what his purpose was, but he answered truthfully: "If he died, I would come."
The Ghost King sneered and said, "I haven't seen you in a thousand years, since the establishment of the Ghost City. It is impossible for you to enter here. It seems that something extraordinary has happened to you."
Xie Zhixing paused and asked, "Do you know me? Or do you know my past life?"
The Ghost King snorted and said, "Not only in our past lives, we have a close relationship."
He said this as if they were old lovers in their previous life, but Xie Zhixing could tell from his tone and eyes that this was not the case.
They are not old lovers or any other unclear relationship.
Chen Xuan heard their conversation clearly outside the window and even remembered a few important words.
The silver bell on the Ghost King's ankle was too dazzling. Xie Zhixing took a look and became curious for no reason. He couldn't help but ask, "The silver bell on your foot..."
He stopped talking before he finished because he saw the Ghost King's expression suddenly become fierce. If he continued asking, he was afraid that he would attack him directly.
"Where did you get the jade pendant around your waist?" The Ghost King's expression quickly returned to normal, and he asked him instead.
Xie Zhixing subconsciously looked at his waist. After seeing the familiar jade pendant, his pupils shrank sharply and he exclaimed, "Why is the jade pendant here?"
After his death, he did not have the jade pendant on his body, but at this moment it appeared on his waist without him noticing.
The ghost king's eyes flashed with surprise and he said, "It seems that someone buried the jade pendant with your body. Have you passed the first seven days of your death?"
Xie Zhixing shook his head. He didn’t know either. He had been here for so long that he couldn’t tell the time. But he guessed that a long time might have passed outside. Otherwise, Xuanzhi wouldn’t have been able to tell that Zhou Jinli was called a tyrant for massacring the city.
Chen Xuan was originally quite indifferent, but after hearing the Ghost King asking Xie Zhixing about the seventh day, he began to sweat profusely, fearing that Xie Zhixing would doubt his identity.
But before Xie Zhixing could think too much, the unopened wine in his hand was snatched away by the Ghost King. He smiled and said, "It just so happens that I have to find a way to take you away from the Ghost City, so we have to go back to the human world to resolve your obsession."
Xie Zhixing was stunned, but reacted quickly. His emotions seemed stable, but his eyes were trembling. "Solve my obsession?"
The Ghost King just smiled. When he stood up, the bell on his ankle made a crisp sound. "We both have obsessions. It's normal for me to see what your obsession is. I was wondering why you became like this. It turns out it's because you fell in love."
"As expected, love is something that will make anyone, whether a god or a human, fall for it and become addicted. It is better to cut it off."
When Chen Xuan heard that the Ghost King was going to take Xie Zhixing back to the human world, he immediately panicked. What would he do if Xie Zhixing left? What would happen to his mission and his treasure chest!
Because he was too anxious, he accidentally hit the window, making a crisp sound, and was directly discovered by the Ghost King.
"I didn't expect there was a little ghost hiding there." The Ghost King hooked his finger towards the window, and the black air wrapped around Chen Xuan and dragged him in.
In fact, when he was discovered, Chen Xuan wanted to teleport away immediately, but he remembered that Xie Zhixing was going to be taken back to the human world by the Ghost King, and he had to go with him, so he waited for the Ghost King to catch him.
When Xie Zhixing saw that Chen Xuan was discovered, he became anxious and blurted out: "He is my friend, don't hurt him."
"Hehe, don't be so nervous." The Ghost King said this to the two of them.
He did not let go of Chen Xuan, but controlled the black energy to drag him closer, looked at him, and said with a click of the tongue: "Daoist disciple, are you a living soul?"
Chen Xuan's face froze. This Ghost King really should not be underestimated. He could tell at a glance that he was a living soul.
That’s right. Chen Xuan knew that he was a living soul. He discovered it on the second day after arriving in the Ghost City. There was no ghost energy or death energy on him, and he was not a dead person. It was probably because the system turned him into a living soul in order to allow him to enter the Ghost City that only ghosts can enter.
Xie Zhixing was surprised and asked, "A living soul? Does that mean Xuanzhi is not dead?"
The Ghost King sneered and said, "Not only is he not dead, he may be alive and well. He just used the method of leaving his soul to enter the Ghost City. Little ghost, you must have some purpose for coming here, right?"
After saying this, he looked at Xie Zhixing, obviously saying that Xie Zhixing was his target.
Chen Xuan was sweating profusely, his mind in a mess, trying to think of how to explain without revealing his identity.
But after meeting Xie Zhixing's inquiring eyes and the Ghost King's teasing eyes, Chen Xuan's body trembled, and he quickly said: "I don't know anything. When I opened my eyes, I was outside the Ghost City. I thought there was no other way to go, so I came in. Who knew that after entering, I couldn't get out."
The Ghost King carefully observed Chen Xuan's expression and said thoughtfully: "It seems that this little ghost did not lie, which is a bit strange."
"Lord Ghost King, what's so strange?" Chen Xuan immediately climbed up the pole, hoping to divert their attention immediately.
It turned out that his method of diverting attention was successful, and the Ghost King and Xie Zhixing stopped asking him questions.
The Ghost King said to himself, "Although only ghosts can enter this evil ghost city, not all ghosts can enter, especially living souls like you. Are you obsessed with something?"
Chen Xuan was confused. Obsession? He shouldn't have it, right?
"Uh..." He immediately stuttered and said unconfidently: "Could it be that I want to live too much?"
Even though he was just making it up, it was indeed his idea. Who doesn't want to walk out of the dungeon alive and well?
"You are really interesting." The Ghost King commented sharply.
He seemed to have thought of something and suddenly laughed, "I've decided. You should come back to the human world with us. I want to see what's going on with your soul leaving your body."
Chen Xuan became even more panicked. He didn't know whether his body was really outside. If it was, and his soul returned to his body, he would never be able to enter the Ghost City again.
But the Ghost King is inherently strong-willed, and no one can change his decision even if Xie Zhixing and Chen Xuan don't want to.
He left as soon as he said he would, holding Xie Zhixing and Chen Xuan in each hand and flying quickly towards the city gate.
The restrictions of the Ghost City were like air to him. He did not feel any obstacles and left the Ghost City. When they appeared again, they had arrived in the bustling human city.
Chen Xuan: "? What the hell is going on? We're coming out of the Ghost City right now? It feels like a fucking dream."
Xie Zhixing looked at the scene in front of him and felt as if he was in another world.
He recognized where this place was at a glance.
In Kyoto, the royal capital of Dayong, at the foot of the imperial city, the flag of the Suian Army was still hung on the city wall.
"It's still Dayong. It turns out I haven't been dead for long..."
